Doctor shares helpful food ordering and delivery tips

LOS ANGELES - Following a surge in panic buying that ensued as a result of the mass closures implemented amid the coronavirus pandemic, Google said there has been a spike in people searching for “how to make toilet paper.”

The Twitter account for Google Trends, which monitors what people are searching for on Google, said that the term “how to make toilet paper,” spiked over 1,300 percent in the past week.

As the virus continued to spread, everyday items such as paper towels, toilet paper and hand sanitizer quickly became a hot commodity as people prepared to hunker down indefinitely as state and local authorities slowly implemented stay at home orders across the country.

Earlier in March, Amazon appeared to be completely sold out of toilet paper with the company stating there would be delays in deliveries for most items. This apparently prompted people to take matters into their own hands by looking up a DIY toilet paper recipe that can be made while cooped up during self isolation.
